Interleukin(IL)-35 is a new member of the interleukin-12 superfamily. Since its first report in 2007, IL-35 rapidly became a research highlight in the field of immunology. Like other IL-12 superfamily members, IL-35 was a heterodimer which was composed of an α chain P35 and a β chain Epstein-Barr virus induced gene 3 (EBI3). Recent research work revealed two distinct roles of IL-35. Firstly, IL-35 is highly expressed in some kinds of inflammatory diseases and autoimmune diseases and plays import roles in the pathogenesis. Secondly, IL-35 is positively expressed in some cancers and plays some roles in the process of tumor progression. Here we demonstrate the structure and the signalling of IL-35. We reviewed the the roles of IL-35 in promoting tumor progression.
白细胞介素(IL)-35是白细胞介素-12超家族的新成员。自2007年首次报道以来,IL-35迅速成为免疫学领域的研究热点。与其他白细胞介素-12超家族成员一样,IL-35是一种异二聚体,由α链P35和β链爱泼斯坦-巴尔病毒诱导基因3(EBI3)组成。最近的研究工作揭示了IL-35的两个不同作用。首先,IL-35在某些炎症性疾病和自身免疫性疾病中高表达,并在发病机制中发挥重要作用。其次,IL-35在某些癌症中呈阳性表达,并在肿瘤进展过程中发挥一些作用。在此我们阐述了IL-35的结构和信号传导。我们综述了IL-35在促进肿瘤进展中的作用。
